Now in an updated edition, this is the most comprehensive book on modern ultrasound imaging in assisted reproductive technology (ART) and reproductive medicine. Fully revised and expanded, it covers emerging technologies possible with the improvement in ultrasound equipment. 3-D monitoring of ovarian follicles, bidirectional vibrant color and Doppler, and improved 3-D and 4-D imaging of reproductive structures are discussed. MRI-guided ultrasound procedures are covered, and comparisons of 3-D imaging with MRI imaging for uterine anomalies is reviewed with an emphasis on the advantages of 3-D performed in the gynecologist’s office, and as a less expensive modality. The overall approach of t...
This collection of essays seeks to analyse historically these influences, connections, and impact from multiple points of view, such as – but not limited to – the links between war and rebellion, the issues of trust and religious violence, early modern university debates on war and peace, the problems engendered by intolerance and the difficult management of tolerance, the delicate matters of politico-religious accommodation and the implementation of peace in towns and contested territories, the reappraisals and changes in the narratives of military prowess and religious fidelity, the role of women in the religious conflicts in the 'long sixteenth century', the porous boundaries (imagined or real) which existed between 'enemies' in times of war and the issues connected to the cohabitation with the 'Other' in times of peace.
a cura di Giulia Mazzoni Il patrimonio culturale di interesse religioso è oggi più che mai strumento di sviluppo economico e di promozione del territorio. Il volume, a partire dall’analisi del regime giuridico, propone idee e riflessioni su nuove strategie e azioni per la valorizzazione e la fruizione dei beni culturali di interesse religioso occupandosi tra l’altro: della costruzione di modelli di governance efficienti per la gestione del patrimonio culturale; delle forme di collaborazione con la Chiesa cattolica; dell’offerta di arte per lo sviluppo economico del territorio; di nuove strategie di marketing digitale; di sostenibilità e fruizione del patrimonio culturale religioso; dei parchi culturali ecclesiali; della fruizione degli edifici di culto per finalità culturali; di organizzazione e gestione dei musei ecclesiastici.
A un anno dall’improvvisa scomparsa del Professor Giuseppe Dalla Torre, non pochi hanno ripercorso i suoi prestigiosi incarichi nell’Università, nella comunità accademica italiana e internazionale, nella Curia romana e nello Stato della Città del Vaticano, e ne hanno ricordato le qualità intellettuali e umane nonché la sterminata produzione scientifica. C’è tuttavia un profilo della sua versatile personalità che forse è rimasto in ombra: quello legato alla sua attività giornalistica, invero assai protratta e fertilissima. Probabilmente a causa del pregiudizio per il quale scrivere sui giornali o interfacciarsi con i mass media, per l’approccio più semplice e divulgativo con...
Mathematicians and statisticians from North America, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East synthesize the recent literature on statistical methods. Their topics include a family of estimators for the coefficient of determination in linear regression models, the quasi- random sequences in the random processes modeling algorithms, locating a change point in a Gaussian model when an outlier is present, the classical and Bayesian reliability estimation of the negative binomial distribution, a shrinkage estimation of the exponential reliability with censored data, and optimal equivariant vector prediction in location families.

This book offers a comprehensive evaluation of the use of stereotactic body radiosurgery (SBRT) for the treatment of prostate cancer. The rationale, selection criteria, and treatment planning for prostate SBRT are explained. Important imaging and anatomic considerations are discussed, and detailed consideration devoted to organ motion and tumor tracking during SBRT. Outcomes of therapy are then examined, with thorough appraisal of side effect profiles and quality of life impacts. Clear guidance is provided on how to deliver the therapy in a way that minimizes the risk of long-term urinary and rectal toxicities. Stereotactic radiosurgery for prostate cancer is an increasingly used form of tre...
Måns Zelmerlöw won a thrilling 2015 Eurovision Song Contest for Sweden. "Heroes" gained 14 12 points in the semi-final. Runners-up Russia were the first to score over 300 points and not win. Without the juries though, Italy would have won the Contest, Sweden would have finished 3rd. Hosts Austria suffered the dreaded "nul points" but Germany also scored 0 & thanks to the tie-breaker rules, Austria avoided last place. Cyprus startled everyone by not giving Greece 12 points. The 2015 Edition of the Complete & Independent Guide is the 8th edition of the book & as usual it's packed with details of every Contest since 1956. We've expanded the Guide again this year to include extra facts, statistics & records, including the full jury & public vote split rankings for the Final, analysis of how countries have voted for the eventual winners, how debutant countries have fared following Australia's success & how the final table would look if it was based on average points received & lots more!
